Far beyond on a distant shore Sanctuary is what I'm praying for Lost in time and eternity Silent pain in agony On my journey across the void Grief and tears for what's been destroyed Death and doom to a billion souls I'm loosing control I am vengeance And retaliation I am demise I am salvation Curse (curse) Of the machinery (the machinery) Damned to be Sentenced for eternity Cursed (cursed) By the machinery Longing to be free But I'm bound to fulfill My destiny (My destiny) Sacrificing my very mind To safe the ones I've left behind I gave it all for a higher aim Has it all been in vain Decades go and millenniums come On the journey, I'm going on To return from the neverness From the abyss I am justice I'm hope and creation I am demise I am salvation Curse (curse) Of the machinery (the machinery) Damned to be Sentenced for eternity Cursed (cursed) By the machinery Longing to be free But I'm bound to fulfill My destiny... And for the sake of my wards I'll be the sentinel Always on the guard Sworn to protect and to serve I shall return To safeguard mother earth And the worlds The sacred worlds Horror and fright Awaits in the night When I cross the line Will I stand the test of time Curse (curse) Of the machinery (the machinery) Damned to be Sentenced for eternity Cursed (cursed) By the machinery Longing to be free But I'm bound to fulfill My destiny (My destiny) For the sake of Atlantis and the worlds And as long as the world's gonna turn I'll be the sentinel I am sworn to return
